Are there no other major fast-paced COD-style multiplayer FPS anymore? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I've always liked the CoD formula, but unfortunately paying 70€ for the latest MW2 to play something so basic seems not worth it, especially when said game will be abandoned next year. I tried searching on the Steam store, but it feels like there are no serious alternatives on this market. Anyone has a good suggestion that could match what I'm looking for? Other than Titanfall 2, I already played this game too much

xDefiant is looking like it might fill this niche. There is an open beta in a couple of weeks.

The Finals is also looking good, and had some unique spins such as 3v3v3.

Unfortunately there isn’t much out there that competes directly with CoD anymore, I’ve been looking for this type of game for years now.

xDefiant was what immediately came to my mind as well. OP should check it out. Feels more or less like one of the more arcade-y CoDs.

Thanks! Never heard of the finals

For what it’s worth, after playing the xDefiant beta, I can say it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for! Reminds me a lot of CoD Black Ops 1.
